Inside the martial arts gym.

Dozens of people in and out of the martial arts arena all stared at this woman.

The woman's heart skipped a beat, her breathing became rapid, her voice trembled, and she looked panicked.

Within a moment, the scalps of the senior brothers and sisters were about to explode. They looked at each other solemnly and asked urgently: "How did she get in?"

"Who is looking at the gate today?"

Along with the buzzing noise, the woman's expression suddenly changed.

Mu Qingyun felt helpless. In fact, he could tell at a glance that this person shouted these words at this moment and here, more or less deliberately.

She just wanted to force Mu Qingyun to agree to her conditions in the martial arts hall and in public.

This little idea was all out in the open. She simply said it openly. She was afraid that she would be retaliated against if she went to Mu Qingyun in private, so she just did it openly.

The only miscalculation was probably that she didn't understand Yuncheng Martial Arts School, nor Mu Qingyun and her senior brothers and sisters.

If Mu Qingyun really has an ulterior secret and a deep grudge against her, then what she is doing now is equivalent to sneaking directly into the enemy's base camp.

There was no need for Mu Qingyun to take action. Everyone present was very nervous at the moment. If something went wrong, they would definitely nip the danger in the bud as soon as possible.

Mu Qingyun couldn't help but sigh.

She swore that she would never write romance novels again.

If she writes even a little bit more bloody plot, she will go to the bathtub and suffocate herself to death.

Seeing that the woman's face was pale and she took several steps back, Mu Qingyun coughed and slowed down her voice: "Don't be anxious, speak slowly, senior sister, get a stool."

After saying that, she stood up and walked out slowly, and motioned to everyone not to stand still and practice as they should. At the same time, she invited this woman to sit down in the small courtyard.

Mu Qingyun asked someone to get a charcoal basin to keep warm, and said with a smile: "You are in a special situation now, so I won't treat you to food or tea."

"Relax, may I ask, what's your wife's name?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, as if she did not expect Mu Qingyun to be so kind. Her face turned red and she smiled bitterly: "I don't dare to take it. My name is Wang Mingzhu. I am the concubine of the second young master of Qi from the Qi family in the north of the city."

There was a hint of reluctance and resignation on her face.

"Mingzhu knows her identity and accepts her fate, but ants still live in vain, let alone humans?"

Mu Qingyun quickly interrupted her: "Is this the Qi family? I don't know the Qi family."

Chen Yi was even less upset and muttered in a low voice: "This is all such a mess."

She had just been joking with Qingqing in private for a while, saying some private words that could not be heard by outsiders, when this man came to her door in such a frightening way, which made her panic.

Chen Yi squinted at Wang Mingzhu, and some martial arts about mind control flashed through her mind.

It's just that when it comes to mental control, those martial arts are very weird and difficult to practice, and she doesn't know how to do them.

If you think about it again, you don't actually need martial arts to control someone. There are many ways to make someone shut up and stop talking nonsense.

A mere weak woman, what are you afraid of what she will do!

Chen Yi, who was no longer worried, quickly went through the method of 'coercion and inducement' in her mind.

I thought about how the sect leader bullied me, uh, no, how to persuade others not to talk nonsense!

A storm surged in Chen Yi's mind, but Mu Qingyun and Wang Mingzhu looked at each other in shock.

The atmosphere was not as tense as expected.

Wang Mingzhu even made up her mind.

Before coming, she prepared for the worst, thinking that Miss Yue might even get angry and beat her up.

She comes from a farmer's family and has rough skin and thick flesh. Even though she is pregnant, she is not necessarily afraid of being beaten.

Now it seems that Miss Yue is a good person.

This is the matter, I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle.

She would rather Miss Yue had a hot and impulsive temper.

Wang Mingzhu sighed inwardly and whispered: "The old lady said that the second young master of Qi and Miss Yue are well matched in both culture and martial arts, so they should be a good match. Only Miss Yue's mother got into trouble because of her husband's concubinage.

The young lady must also be someone who can’t get the sand out of her eyes.”

"To show respect for the lady, we concubines must be sent away."

Wang Mingzhu sighed, "Actually, it doesn't matter if I'm sent away. When my mother married me to Mr. Qi as a concubine, I thought I would just work for a few years so that I could save some dowry for myself and reduce the burden on my family.

, I will still be able to live a good life after I leave the Qi family in the future."

Her face was sincere, and it was obvious that she really thought so.

Mu Qingyun's expression also showed no trace of strangeness, as if this was a normal situation.

Mu Qingyun didn't know the folk customs of this era before.

From what she knew and read, it was said that during this period, the atmosphere became more and more enlightened. Marriage was monogamous and concubines were not allowed. At least officials and scholars were not allowed to have concubines.

This is politically correct.

Control over women has also begun to relax, and girls can go out to study and work.

Of course, this is true on the surface, but in fact many people take a woman's honor and integrity more seriously than before.

Every year, there are still women who fall into the water, and for the sake of reputation, they refuse to let strangers rescue them.

But when Mu Qingyun truly entered this era and broke away from the written information, she was shocked to realize that most of the rules and regulations that later generations saw on paper were actually things that only the so-called upper class would abide by.

At least you have to be from a poor family to be qualified to consider these things.

Let's just say that Wang Mingzhu's plan seems to be an ordinary thing at the moment.

Nowadays, isn't it stipulated by the imperial court that you are not allowed to take concubines? It is also not allowed to buy slaves and keep maids. Rich people just recognize an adopted daughter with a different name.

For a few years, natural disasters were frequent and people's lives were very difficult. Girls from poor families who were born with fair heads and decent faces even thought that it would be a good thing to become a girl or concubine for a wealthy family.

After a few years, the novelty of the house wears off, and anyone who is not a particularly bad guy is willing to send away concubines who have passed their prime.

Some mistresses are generous, or the serving masters are kind and willing to give an extra dowry.

This girl from a poor family goes to live in a wealthy family for a few years, where she eats and drinks well, sometimes even learns a trade, and saves a dowry. When she returns home, she becomes the beautiful woman that her neighbors are vying for.

Why would they care if they were concubines of wealthy men?

Some middle-class families with good family backgrounds are more willing to take concubines from other families than daughters from ordinary small families.

Those who have been concubines are more popular than those who have only been maids.

After all, being able to become a concubine means that her quality must be higher than that of ordinary maids.

Wang Mingzhu is obviously very rational. Her intention is to take this path, so she doesn't care whether she is dismissed or not. If she is dismissed two years earlier, she will save less money for a dowry.

"It was an accident that I got pregnant with this baby. When my husband, wife and son found out, they asked me to have the baby. I was a little hesitant at the time, but I didn't dare to fight because I was stopped."

Wang Mingzhu regretted it terribly, "If I abort her now, my life will be hard to save."

"Early this morning, the old lady went to get some medicine and asked Xiaozhen to cook it for me."
